For hundreds of years, and until the mid-20th century, thriving Jewish communities coexisted with their neighbors in many of the countries of North Africa and the Middle East, and in Iran. One result of coexistence was the exchange of ideas which influenced and enriched each other’s art.

Join in this 2-session course in which we will look at some of the most striking works produced by Jewish artists living in these communities.

Tuition for this 2-part series: $50.00
